    great-niece Donna Bishop:  "As far as Warren R. Champlin, Albert's brother -  I know that the Butcher Gibbens genealogy says that he died in 'New Orleans,' but I'll bet anything he died in 'Orleans,' Indiana.  There is a town very near Greene County, Indiana named 'Orleans.'  Also Warren R.'s father, Calvin lived in 'Orleans,' Indiana for a time, I have a hand written story from his second wife, Mary Elizabeth Lockman signed in 'Orleans'."
    
    Regarding place of death, note also that Warren R.'s father Calvin was resident in Orleans, IN in March 1875, probably removing to OH by December 1875, when Warren R.'s half-sister Mary L. was born there.
    
    On June 4, 1898 and again on August 17, 1899 Calvin completed a questionnaire regarding his pension and provided the following information:  (...) He had two children living: Mrs. Della M. Spalding (born 1855) and Mary Champlin (born 1875).
    
    Gibbens-Butcher Genealogy (1894):  "Warren R., born in 1864, and died in New Orleans in 1887."
